Today we discuss NHL players who had long careers, from the great Gordie Howe, Mark Messier, Tim Horton, Chris Chelios, and  Jaromir Jagr. What makes those players last so long and are there fewer players reaching 20 NHL seasons today.

This year, four players have a chance to join the 20 NHL seasons club, including future HOFers Alex Ovechkin and Sidney Crosby, along with Ryan Suter and Corey Perry.

Plus we look at some players who still could make the list in the near future like Anze Kopitar, Claude Giroux, and Jonathan Quick.

All this and more on today's Locked On NHL Podcast with Rachel Donner and Gil Martin.
